Marriott International, Inc. announced an agreement with Imperium Hospitality to open a Sheraton Grand Hotel in Lahore – marking the company's first hotel in Pakistan's key gateway city. Scheduled to open in 2021, the hotel will carry the Sheraton Grand designation which represents the premier tier of Sheraton hotels recognised for their enticing destinations, distinguished designs and excellence in service and guest experiences.

"Sheraton continues to maintain its first mover advantage through strategic pipeline development and growth plans and we are now excited to introduce the brand in Lahore," said Samir Baidas, Chief Development Officer, Middle East & Africa, Marriott International.
